Some characters seem to have lucked out with a very baddass tag, while others received names that will always take 100 points away from thier "Coolness Quotient".
But it doesn't always work out that way.

So, Cool and Dorky.

Give an example of each.

Off the top of my head-

Tigershark- cool

Supergiant- dork, destined to die.

Cool (Namor)

Dorky (Aquaman)

Aquaman should have been Sea-Man. Like King of the 7 seas and all "sea" life.

Good: Batman, Superman, Spiderman, Iron Man...

Bad: Antman

Not sure why?

Cool - Midnighter - sounds scary

Dork - Captain Boomerang (why 'Captain'? Seems pretty arbitrary rank-wise. Why not, 'Colonel Boomerang'? Nope, that's stupid too. In fact, anything ending in 'Boomerang ' is ridiculous)

Where's Riv? He's awesome at this sort of thread.

Bat spider and iron are cool prequels to man. Super is ok too

Cool - Hyperion

Dorky - Matter Eater Lad

Ants are small and weak and everything eats them.

Ants are small and weak and everything eats them. Ants eat spiders and unlucky bats.

Plastic Man- uncool. Deserves something cooler. Like "the Extender" or "Non-Static Shape Man".

Maelstrom- pretty cool

U deserve to die

Eye Scream- http://www.marvunapp.com/Appendix/iscrm.htm

Turner D Century

Im sorry, but Matter Eater Lad
For a character with a cool power, they could have done better.
Drugs, pizza and igniting farts, obviously distracted the creators one night.


Cool name?- definitely thumbs up for
The Atomic Skull

Charlie-27 Ch'od. Some name sound scarier then actual character Avalanche for example

I really like Charlie Cluster 27....

GOTG?

Spawn
Darkness
Venom

Uncool
Armless Tiger Man
Mad Hatter
Dr Octopus
Blob

Ben Grimm - cool
Wally West - dorky

Uncool - Batman, Spider-man, Aquaman.

They are iconic names and we are used to them, but in all honesty they are dorky as hell.

Cool - Ultron, Godzilla, Green Goblin.

Coolest - Kang the Conqueror.

Dorky-Hoppy The Marvel Bunny
Cool-Howard The Duck

Dorky-Stuff, The China Town Kid

The Whizzer.

The Silver Surfer is dorky too. I like the Hulk. Mr Fantastic is dorky. Human Torch is cool.

He and Savage Dragon's Dung need a cross over SO much.

Dragonman: initially I thought, dorky. What - just stick "man" onto any word and poof, you have a superhero name? But over time, I got used to it, and now, it's pretty cool.

Any superhero name with "Lad": dorky.

Aegis, Lady of All Sorrows: everything about her is cool.

Galactus: cool.

Amazo: dorky

Darkseid: cool, because of the spelling.

Bane: cool.

Iron Man: cool

Doomsday: cool

The Celestials: cool

Golden Glider: dorky

Havok
Sabertooth

Lame
Giganta
Granny Goodness

Black Racer- dude that's a snake that defends itself by pushing its @$$ out of its body, crapping and twisting around in it! A little research before hangin a tag on a character, goes a long way.

Thunderbird, very cool.

DarkSaint - very cool.

Horrificus, celehymen, Escalatordo, Mindshet - dorky.

Bentman is cool, though. As is gooley370 and Riversong.

Yup.

Absolute shite names some of them.

Dorky - Spider-Man

Cool - Dracula, Exodus, Vulcan etc

Also Thanos is a good name (also a good idea since it comes from Thanatophobia, which is the fear of Death.) Which seems ironic.

Ah right my bad. Always thought it was the other thing. Thanks for correcting me.

I also have to be a dick and point on that Vulcan is a shit name for a shit character!

Exodus is brilliant though ))

Matter-Eater Lad = dookie

Judge Dredd is quite a cool name.

Always thought Molecule Man and Doctor Doom sounded cheesy.

**** anybody who thinks Legion have dorky names.

Mon-El, Wildfire, Brainiac 5, Andromeda, Dawnstar are cool as hell.

Shark Boy.

First time I saw him in TNA wrestling, I thought "This has jobber written all over it."

Those are names that a kindergarten class comes up with and draws them on a single sheet of large paper drawn in crayon.

I want no part in any company war bs but those names in particular are lazy as hell. The entire Legion is just a bunch of create-a-wrestlers

I only care about Jack Kirby's genius. I've said so many times.

Don't know whether this is the best or the worst name.

Beast man.

Wing lad.

Mind girl.

Ice boy.

Sick names.

Well, it WAS kids that wrote the old school stuff, after all.

Those guys are the worst. You don't even see it coming because they are in the shadow.

Cool
Harley Quinn
Sinestro
Parallax
Hyperion
Ion

Cool
Snake eyes
Ninjak
Eternal warrior
Prophet
Horrorshow
Invincible
Quantum

Dorky
Matter Eater lad
Most of the legion of superheroes (you'd think they could make up something more creative than lad, boy, and girl at the end of most of their names)

The worst offense to even a child's intelligence imo is when their legal name is shoe horned to be their superhero or villain name like:

Harley Quinzel

Jubilation Lee

Edward Nigma

Dr. Charles McNider

Originally posted by krisblaze

Wing lad.

Mind girl.

Ice boy.

Sick names.

Heh, Wing Lad... good name for Warren Worthington.

But they already basically used Polar Boy and Saturn Girl instead of the more obvious Mind Girl and Ice Boy.

Dr. Charles McNider Yeah, there's tons of them like Otto Octavius becoming Doc Ock, Anton Vibreaux becoming the villain Vibro after happening to gain vibrational powers etc.

Cool: Him

Dorky: Streaky

Captain Man, is a play on the two most common superhero titles from comics, "Captain" and "Man".

Awesome.

Natasha Romanov

Hulk. May be the dorkiest name ever. I mean, what is that? Hulk.

Coolest name: Luke Cage. You do not want to mess with a guy name Luke Cage.
